Definition

There are two different ways of deleting the object tables based on a determination path. These options are available irrespective of the determination procedure you selected.

  1. Delete completely
    The system deletes the data for the combination of source and target determination object that is stored with the path completely and then does a 'commit work'.
    Use case: This is the default setting which should be used in all cases except for very big tables.
  2. Read packages and delete by commit
    The system deletes the data for the combination of source and target determination object that is stored with the path in a package-by-package approach using 'array delete' and then does a 'commit work'. This procedure is repeated until all data for the table has been deleted completely.
    Use case: With very big tables, the rollback segment may overflow if you try to delete them completely. You can avoid this by deleting the data by packages and doing the 'commit work' repeatedly. However the reading requires more time than for a complete deletion.
